Taipu, without a doubt. That, or my own Xenronn, who was a matoran living on the Southern continent before Voya Nui ascended. His original element was.... umm. Hard to remember. I think it was Air. Dunno, it's been a loooongg time. _Xenn

[font="'comic sans ms', cursive;"][color=rgb(0,128,0);]Le-Matoran all the way. I've always had an obsession with Lewa and Matau and basically any character with the air element. Plus, green is my favorite color, which is another reason.[/color][/font]

Based on my personality, I'd be either a Ko-Matoran or more likely an Onu-Matoran, most likely Metru Nui style. My reasoning? I like to be alone and I like the dark. If I had a choice on what Matoran i'd be, I'd rather have been one of the Av-Matoran in the villages in Karda nui who got turned into a shadow matoran and later healed. They just feel cool.

Style: Easy, I'd choose Mahritoran, for their added resilience and stronger bodies, which still aren't quite at "enlarged Av-Matoran" levels, which I consider overkill.

Element: Earth, probably, because history is by far one of my best subjects, which goes well with the way Onu-Matoran philosophy goes, becuase I'm an indoor person, and because of the implication that I'd be good with machines, being an Onu-Matoran and all. Earth has always been one of my favorite elements.

I'd be an Av-Matoran with the Avtoran build. I would naturally bend light around me to red and gunmetal grey and I would wear a powerless Huna. And my special ability when there's a Toa in the vicinity would be: absorb light around me and unleash it in a blast.

"Why can't I dream that I'm alone?" "That is not a dream, that is a substitute for reality"
"So where is my dream?" "it is a continuation of reality"
"But where is my reality?" "It is at the end of your dream"

Either Ko or Av. I heart cold, but Av-Matoran can actually DO something with their element.

Oh, and Onu. I heart darkness and caves too. Really, any Matoran form would be awesome. Well, not De...

As for body design, I always liked the longer-armed "Tohunga", ironically. But in terms of where to live, gotta go with Metru Nui. (I suppose that way you get both forms at different times, huh? ). Although the whole memory loss thing... aaaanywho, I assume we're not getting that specific.

Ba-matoran, while their special abilities haven't been made canon yet, I imagine them to be able to jump higher and fall slow than normal matoran. And even if that's not their special ability, it'll be along those lines, which is cool.
